    Drake and I are so sorry to hear about your loss. I don't think I ever saw your dad/grandfather without a smile on his face! He was a good man.

    Dear Suzanne, Please accept our sympathy on the loss of your father. Dick was in the hospital when your Dad was there--they were roommates for several days. I didn't realize who he was until just before Dick was released from the hospital. Your Dad was so sweet, polite, and gentle. You must have many wonderful memories of life with him, and I hope this will sustain you and your children during this difficult time. Sincerely, Harriet Pfister
